I was a petty church boy until people who were kind enough to challenge my beliefs without belittling me. If I had been shunned for not getting it about then president Dubya, I might have become a very different person.
From someone who took the time to learn how to play real music on real instruments, go fuck yourself Snot Nuke, and anyone else who thinks you’re doing anything with this invasive nonsense other than depreciating the value of art and artists.
Also, I don’t want props from people who view music and art as some kind of innate “talent” that people are born with, that’s not how it works, it’s just effort and dedication and you’re just too lazy or not dedicated enough to learn, literally nothing else to it, it’s purely effort.

So... AI is a bubble now that they're charging you for a service?
I've been anti-ai for a while but I somehow don't think this guy has seen the light

I think he's just anti-capitalism. He has no problem with AI he just doesn't like that he has to pay for it.

Maybe the cost sobered them up and they had a real thought of the real worth of what they were doing.
It's all fun and games until you hit the squeeze.

Personally I don't care how people convert to the right way of thinking. I care that they do it.
This purity test mentality is what kills movements.

Fair.

Exactly this here. All this purity posturing drives people away from movements.
I like to borrow a phrase from Stratagem Twenty-Two (Catch the Thief by Closing His Escape Route):
Roughly translated it means, "When you surround an army, you must leave an outlet; do not press a desperate enemy too hard."
Translating this into social movements, I'd express it as, "Leave room for redemption; don't shun the opposition forever".
Because if people think there's no path to redemption, they won't try to redeem themselves. They'll go further down the path that you don't like.

To me the comment reads more as questioning the sustainability of AI as a business after realizing it's all subscriptions.

Ah, illiteracy.

Why did they think it was staying free to begin with?
The undercut, expand, hook, and squeeze approach has been the corporate business model for the last quarter century.

Because AI bros ignore facts and engage in magical thinking.

I feel worse being on the same side as that person.

I technically understand the words of that potential “song” but strung together that doesn’t make any sense to me.

The paywalls are going to save us?

No, they are only here to scoop up whatever they can.

I will slap them with my pencil and then shake their hand.
